Forum › In the Rain and Cold discussion
You guys are taking this one shot way too seriously.
Lol, I was just thinking I wanted a sexy yuri to be uploaded, enjoyed this story alot...hope the next chapter gets scantalated soon ^_^
Omg... my dad walked in my room when I was on http://dynasty- scans.com/chapters/in_the_rain_and_cold#12 I didn't exit it because I was too busy eating peanuts. It was so awkward, I was just smiling. SO KIDS, REMEMBER TO CLOSE AND LOCK YOUR DOOR BEFORE READING YURI!!
LOL @ "User1" ... sounds like a smart reaction ;-) but going with the theme of this comment thread I fully disagree with u :-P you should always read yuri in public where people wonder why your grinning all love sick over the moe, and turning bright red during nsfw moments LOL B-)
I could actually predict all the
Retardedand overlyHystericalcomments over a stupid porn oneshot in this forum this time, so that must mean my powers as an oracle are manifesting themselves. Thanks for that...
I could predict it too fair moderator...
Im chalking it up to that it was the only upload today, because ive never seen like over 20 comments on nsfw tagged yuri until today LOL...
Anyway keep up the good work...
(posting comments alot, avoiding the whole sleep thing it seems :-P ) ¥@wň :3

^ Cracking up imagining this.
Regarding the oneshot itself:
1. Wow, Shizuku is cute
2. Sensei is a bit of a failure of an adult; it's a miracle she wasn't arrested, lol. It just happened this time that Shizuku liked her back but she would've been fukken screwed if it turned out she hadn't, and I have no clue what Shizuku actually sees in her :P.

I honestly can't see the teacher truly liking the girl, she just look like some weirdo wanting her loli harem. And for the student… I don't understand any of her thought or deeds. The girl clearly see and understand that the teacher is totally enjoying her loli harem but no, since she is crying that means she loves her and didn't do anything with any of her classmate.
Of course these kind of things a totally ordinary

It was just a peek on the cheek ? Of course ! What was i thinking ? Aren't I dumb ?
Even without the loli thing, the teacher is clearly a jerk ._.

I would NEVER approve of this in real life. But it's fiction so it's a whole different story! Woo hoo for age gap.
Also, this has been the first manga I've read where the teacher was the one who openly pursues her own students. Wow. I hope there are no teachers like her in real life.

The story disagrees with you. Which is a major theme in the rest of your post.

Was that some sad attempt at sarcasm? The way their faces are angled, yes, it might very well just been a peck on the cheek. We don't see who initiated it, we don't see where she's kissed and we don't see whether she kisses back. All we have is her word for it and the fact that, aside from that one panel, the only one she shows interest in is the protagonist.

Clearly. She is also an elvish princess from Mars, because hey, if you ignore major story points and make up stuff to justify your own preconceptions, you might as well go all the way.

Nowhere we see the teacher the teacher even try to say that this was initiated by the girl. Knowing that it would be the best excuse she could have I deduce she wasn't forced (if I can say that). And if it was a peck on the cheek, I don't think they would be in that position. Arm around the neck, clearly stuck to each other isn't some common posture of that kind of thing if i'm not wrong. (also, I may have bad eyes but from what I see they are clearly face to face, no ? At least the girl isn't on the cheek...)
For the fact that the sensei do not really "love" the student, it's how I see it. If you see it the other way that's cool with me

Umm are you all forgetting this is FICTIONAL AND NOT REAL LIFE?? Social justice warriors please leave.
Whoa whoa whoa. I the comment I made wasnt to bitch about justice or anything like that, this isn't the time or the place. It also wasn't to argue over morals because that always goes no where.
I'm not happy with the sexual harassment moments myself, but if you want to get technical with me Toono gave consent. > > Yes, I was not particularly thrilled with how the relationship was developed...I see many ways it could have been better. But that's not gonna make me start shouting obscenities at it. > > Don't compare age gap and child pornography or rape. In no way are the two related. > > If you don't believe the relationship can work, go read Hoshikawa. Awesome story.
No i dont mind age gaps, in fiction, but like others said it was either bad writing or a dark story. I only wanted to point out that it was statutory rape, because it was, mainly due the double standard.

I usually like age gap, I read a couple yesterday, but this is so bad... And I agree... the kiss with the other girl really looks like a KISS. I think the author did this without much effort/attention and thats why is inconsistent, looks like a fast-work. Bah I liked the art and was hoping for something better.
I don't like this one. The story is terrible. It would be better if it concentrated more on the story or if it was just an ordinary porn. But in this case it is neither. I am happy it has an age gap though.
but this is so bad because...
the kiss with the other girl really looks like a KISS based on...
Is this really so difficult? You should've learned this in middle school. If you cannot be bothered to formulate a basic criticism then maybe dial it down with the wannabe literary critic routine people have going here, yes? Not much effort, indeed.
meh heh
I feared that this day will one day come.
The day that the yuri-community developes standards...!
- stares at comments* * sighs* * leaves*
Why do lolicon and shotacon fans get so defensive when anyone feels uncomfortable with such material. This isn't a matter of the popular defenses that a drawing isn't a person or that because a few people feel something is wrong or makes them uncomfortable then suddenly we have to ban everything to make everyone happy. That is just immature and more giving an excuse than any logical, refined, or even useful defensive argument. It is natural to create a human connection with these characters because that is what they are drawn to be, they are to imitate us. When people see someone that looks quite young seemingly being taken advantage of by an adult, that is concerning to a lot of people, and there should be a standard whether this is fantasy or not. It is my personal belief that 16 is a fine age for consent, I lost my virginity at 15 and looking back I was too young for that. I also think 16 is fine for depiction of sexual activity in manga. Younger than that I feel uncomfortable and won't read the material if it contains sexual activity. Any character that is depicted as being prepubescent, and I don't care what anyone thinks, and is shown in sexual situations I consider that child pornography. We need to keep some innocence in our children no matter if it's a drawing or IRL, and that's where I draw a line. Yes this is fantasy and yes it is not really happening. Such acts can be used in a literary way as well, my concern isn't that. My concern lies when it is explicitly depicted for others sexual enjoyment. A sexually immature child is not a sex object.
In most of the posts on here where people said this made them feel uncomfortable well, they didn't go attacking those who didn't feel uncomfortable. They said their piece and that was that. Why all the sarcastic comments from the defenders and... even a moderator on this site? I thought the girl in this manga looked like a middle school students so I skipped the sexual parts. I just didn't like it because of that so am I not free to voice my opinion when I don't like something? Don't be so one sided with your belief in freedom, it just makes you look like a hypocrite. Also, remember that freedom comes with responsibility, it is not a free pass to do whatever you want.

I thought I'd never live long enough to see the day.
This seemed more like grooming than most age gap/student-teacher stories. So... that's not great.

Hello :)
This is a very wise comment :)
Everybody has right to make their statements about something, does not matter if it are words of liking or disliking something, especially that Here nobody "attack" the other site, but the content of this Oneshot !
I personally like Aoko works, but this left mi with bad taste in My mouth, and it is was on the borderline of rape...
So if anybody feel offended by MY PERSONAL STATEMENT about this piece of manga, fell free to defend it, as You like, but this statement is MY own, like Others are Their, even defending side. Without "attacking" anybody's FREE of SPEECH!
Thank You :)

I should hope we take manga seriously, in the same way that we take comics, anime, movies, books, games, and other forms of art seriously. This does not mean that we can't enjoy fun romps and any number of silly/strange/stupid stories! But criticism and talking about art can make it better, so I'll definitely keep talking about and critiquing culture I care about.
Note that I have very few comments on this site, usually I don't feel moved to comment, but this particular work was egregious enough that I felt I had to.
Meh, I'm kind of used to seeing teacher-student age gaps like this with varying degrees of consent, it's not something i particularly like, but it's something that crops up a lot in student teacher stories. At the end of the day, teacher's aren't supposed to have relationships with their students anyway, this is all fiction, etc.
I was more bothered about how bad the story was. Girl sees teacher kissing another girl, gets mad jels even though she hates teachers, quick weird elementary school backstory, then
ok they love each other really lets have a quickie in the classroom - that is waaay too much for a one-shot haha.

Literature is literature and is always up for constructive criticism. Some really powerful stories a told through manga or graphic novels so don't be selling them short. My favorite manga/anime of all time, Elfen Lied, is a perfect example. I agree that there are stories out there that don't need to be analyzed like this since they are there just for enjoyment. When you see an adult however, who looks and acts more like a predator than someone in love it is disconcerting. When literature is controversial that creates even more reason to discuss it.
